I again note that Sir Keir and Morgan went from embattled Big Beasts Of Politics to clueless and embarrassing no-hopers in the length of time it took maybe 500 MPs and political commentators to read Peter Mandelson’s emails to Jeffrey Epstein. Now all Peter’s friends are on best behaviour 🤔

We can conclude here that either 1) these lads have been assured none of this is going to happen, or 2) somewhere in Labour HQ there is a drawer full of evidence against them that’s so utterly damning, all of these guys will squeak “Oh yes I love nationalising things” like their nuts are in a vice.

This notion of bigoted beliefs being a protected characteristic like gender or race is just absolutely barmy. Those of us who’ve experienced genuine discrimination for who we are know there’s no comparison, and the political and legal collusion on this stuff is disastrous.

Watching the Arab Spring play out was a real education, as everyone started by cheering on the way social media had helped movements for justice to get rid of unjust regimes… and then a lot of people had a think about what the implications of that might be.

the maddening thing is that none of this history plays *any* role at all in discussion of "welfare reform". There will be no questions about why all the other "welfare reforms" (ie. cuts) didn't work. Why the callous Tories, who actually HAD A MANDATE for cutting state support, couldn't manage it
